How To Play The Perfect Flop shot
Sharing buttons:
hello and welcome to me in my golf it's
time for the impact show and how to play
the perfect flop shot
let's take charge of your game never
doing that again
thanks for joining us by the second
green and the aspirin now if you don't
already oddest is all about fifty yards
and in that is the theme for the month
so everybody is has can you show us how
to pay the perfect flop shot it is a
great shot when it comes off but it can
go wrong carnot it can go wrong and
that's the thing we don't want you're
really attempting this if you haven't
practice it because if you do get it
wrong you're on danger of killing
somebody on the golf course and you
don't want to do that so what we're
gonna do today show you some key things
that you can do in practice that you can
apply then on the golf course and
hopefully when you face with a shot like
this you're not going to just go with a
chip onto the middle of green and safe
you're going to attempt to actually get
it close and actually go for that shot
this is a problem because this is a
tough shot here you've got no green to
work with it's uphill this is tough so
before we get into the setup and the
technique the lie often dictates whether
you can actually even play the shot yes
so you wouldn't attempt this if it was
really sitting down and you couldn't get
the club underneath the golf ball so you
really want it to be sitting on a little
bit of grass that allows the club to
slide underneath the golf ball like this
I'm look at the minute I mean a little
bit of semi it's a little dry so I've
got no problem at all you're actually
getting the club sliding underneath the
golf ball but then club selection is key
as well you need the right loft I'm
gonna go with my 60 height oh and you'll
also need a good bounce to suit as well
again that depends on the golf course in
your style that's important to get that
right question time there for you guys
what course conditions would actually
suit a high bounce wedge post your
comments down below will pin the answer
to the tow firm or soft which conditions
firm or soft okay you're right setup
what we got setup let's stop with that
okay well I play this personally like a
bunker shot so I need more loft so I'm
actually gonna open the clubface up a
little bit more here before I place my
hands on that's gonna give me some more
loft but when I do this now my face is
pointing right so I'm laying the body
left so buddy's going to be left
clubface is going to be about target now
ball position is forward and the stance
just inside that
he'll and notice the width of the stance
he appears most people would use this
for that driver but I'm going wide
stance plenty of flex in the legs and
this enables me to get the handle low
which again gives me a little bit more
loft on the club face so really wide
stance here strange for a short game
shot I know but he definitely does help
create the right attack angle and lock
and lock that we need yeah and it's that
you're absolutely prime now as you say
to get the club head sliding underneath
a golf ball so in terms of the weight on
them from right to left we want to be
50/50 or even slightly leadside is good
we want a slight downward its attack
angle on this we don't want to be
hanging back and trying to help it up in
the air that's not gonna do you no
favors at all we want that slight
downward attack angle producing the loft
which is going to help get the strike
and get this nice launch and I think
leaning on that left side is more than
enough than that in needing to do to do
that never definitely not a thought of
trying to do a swing so swing swing into
that then so very different to a full
shot it's gonna be a lot quieter with a
lower body already the stance is wider
that's gonna help sort of with that
quite a lower body but in the backswing
we're gonna really produce a lot of
wrist set here creating the loft we're
gonna keep the loft on the club face
really important that we do that now
from here on the way through instead of
driving and rotating hard and extending
the arms that's great for a 7-iron or a
driver what we're actually gonna do here
is keep the lower body quiet and really
accelerate the club head pass the hands
and notice the through swing here pace
the legs are extremely quiet but look at
my arms they're really close into the
body and you can see how much the club
head is travel past but I've kept the
loft as I'm doing this on the club face
on the way through
that's interesting when you do now would
you say that you'd do this with speed do
you need speed in this we need speed
because I'm creating so much loft at the
setup buttering the golf swing here so
I'm really accelerating that hard and
you can see I'm sort of getting these
arms in but notice on each practice
swing I'm doing I've made sure I've hit
the ground really important that we
don't do this early we want to hit the
ground release and get the arms in close
like that Tiger Woods that speed and
those arms softening into the body so
I'm building your opinion when I see you
play the shot then so you got to keep
that loft on you got to hit the ground
there the two main things that you want
to be thinking about when you hit the
shot this is a hard shot the winds
picking up though into so it's helping
you out a little bit
has come so high and the wind actually
made it go to the left otherwise it
would be pretty close so that's six feet
they're ready to ready to make that for
a birdie please probably missed that one
actually okay that's a pretty good shot
there okay
okay so look if you enjoyed that please
